Galar Gym Leader Roleplay!

[Exit]

@Ambra Yes. And I'll take grass again.

@AmbraQuick question, while I’m assuming Fakemon are off the table, would you agree to the possibility of a different form? I was thinking my character might have an Urshifu as his partner, but it has a different martial arts style which would enable it to have a Fire-Type evolution?

@TheNoCoKid

I'm gonna preempt Ambra on this, but due to Gamefreak refusing to be consistent on anything, Urshifu is officially classified as a legendary. So it's kinda off the table regardless.

[Crimson Flame]

I was going to wait for the OOC, but I guess I’ll ask here.

Seeing as my character is the Psychic Gym Leader, can I have some minor Psychic Powers. Just enough to telekinetically move the Pokeballs and other small objects?

[Marlowe]

@TheNoCoKid yeah urshifu by itself is a legend. And we're not accepting different forms. ^^

@Crimson Flame Moving objects is a bit too much, but you can have slight psychic powers sure

[Lord Orgasmo]

Oh boy it's spoon bending time

@Ambra

So what would be appropriate?

[Marlowe]

@Crimson Flame Being able to communicate telepathically with your Psychic Pokemon to a certain degree, maybe have some premonitions. I've always been of the mind that strong psychic powers among humans were insanely rare in the Pokemon world.

[RisingRobin]

@Ambratotally fair! My only other question would be if we’re allowed different GMax Pokémon other than the ones the gym leaders use because… i’m not going to lie but I’m not the biggest fan of Centiskortch…

[Fabricant451]

So does the gym challenge in the RP follow the same gym types as the game? So like Grass > Water > Fire and so on or will it he like "Oh the Ballonlea gym is the bug gym this season"?

[Marlowe]

@TheNoCoKid Nope. No other Gigantamax forms. You can Dynamax any Pokemon though, and even then, Piers was considered pretty strong lore-wise despite the fact he refused to use either one.

@Fabricant451 Since gym leaders also fight one another in the Champion's Cup, I've always assumed that the rank they receive every Cup affects where they're based next season. I'm also of the mind that they can also be demoted to the Minor League if they actually do THAT bad or if the Minor League leader has spent a ton of time training in order to promote. So for instance, my character can be 7th this season, but she could have been 8th last season but just did poorly in battle. I hope that makes sense.

[RisingRobin]

@Ambrathat’s honestly perfect. I’m more than happy to work around it. Cinderace was going to be my second choice for an Ace Pokémon anyway.

[Crimson Flame]

@Ambratotally fair! My only other question would be if we’re allowed different GMax Pokémon other than the ones the gym leaders use because… i’m not going to lie but I’m not the biggest fan of Centiskortch…

@TheNoCoKid

I mean… there’s Charizard…

[RisingRobin]

@Crimson Flamelook, bruv. I love that fire not-dragon to death, but even I’m going to admit it got overused after a certain point. Also, I thought the gmax design looked ugly, and doesn’t really mesh with where I’m thinking of taking my character.

[Crimson Flame]

Listen for personal reasons I have an undying hatred for that wannabe dragon. That’s all I’m going to say about it.

[RisingRobin]

@Crimson Flameooooh… someone lost a nuzlocke.
